The Movie

Your team will make a 28 second movie with a beginning, middle, and end.

 

You must have credits.

You must have a person disappear.

You must use "keying" technology.

You must use the "lightning" effect.

You must have a person hang upside down.

Plan before you start.

More to come

Sprite

Make a movie with the star of the fade girl video. Cut her out so she is opening her arms, and copy this short video 6 times. Export this as a movie, and recopy until you have 5 seconds of the girl opening her arms. Change the time so it looks like she is flying.

Use the 16 point garbage matte and the chroma key to isolate the girl. Put her on a background and produce a movie which has a beginning, middle, and end.

Watch the "Zit Fairy" and copy that if you do not have a good idea

Fade Girl

Download Movie for fade on the skydrive

Cut out a frame of the background and stretch it.

Fade using keyframes and the fade tool

Put a crawl and a roll on the credit/title.

Premier: Fireball!

1. Down load the firball with Tessa (yes firball) video from the public skydrive. The hyperlink to this is on the pages section of the blog.
2. You need to adjust the size so it fits into the "box" on the video preview screen. Do this by grabbing the anchors of the video and shrinking them, much like you are shrinking a picture with free transform.
3. Cut the video to a good starting point. Lead the action.
4. Lighten the video. (video effects, color correction: brightness and contrast)
5. Cut the video up using the razor tool into proper segments
6. Move the segments you want to have the fire ball to a different video track
7. Use lens flair, lightning or both when needed. Adjust them!
8. Add title.
9. Add credits.

Save, save Save! Premier will crash. You will lose it all.

Dreamweaver and pictures

On a new page in Dreamweaver, place your 6 pictures you created previously.  Space them evenly on the page and have a named anchor which takes you to page one.

You should have two pictures of DreamWeaver on your blog.  You no longer need widgets.

Welcome back

Dreamweaver.

It's difficult so welcome the pain.like a long lost friend.

Create 6 pictures today:  3 in Photoshop using 6 tools, 2 in paint, and 1 in illustrator. 

Use at least 6 tools on each picture in Photoshop.  If you wish, you may use illustrator instead of paint for three pictures.

Put all 6 pictures into an InDesign document and then post that to your blog.  Do not post individual pictures.

Label  your post "The 6 pictures"

You may use the web to find pictures to manipulate for Photoshop. 

We will be posting these pictures to Dreamweaver, so bring the files to class next time.

15 pictures at least,

"Glowing Letters", (Letters in negative space with the glow effect)

Size must be 18 inches long and 8.5 inches tall. (legal landscape) Two pages.

Bowling

Goal:  To create a .fla movie in Flash with a rotating"blinking" celebrity bowing ball hitting 10 celebrity bowling pins.  There must be a close up of the ball with "wind" and a moving back ground, as well as credits with your name on it.

The movie must be over 7seconds long.

There must be at least 4 named layers and all your pins must be on different layers which are contained in a folder.

A wow factor of 5% is needed for full credit.

Action Script is so cool

Where the movie can be seen:


http://tv.adobe.com/watch/flash-downunder/programming-my-button/


 stop();


button.addEventListner(MouseEvent.CLICK,movie);
function movie(e:MouseEvent){
gotoAndStop(1);

}

Buttons

Buttons work like a movie in flash.










They need action script, which we will dabble in.









DO. Make a button with all four stages.









Go to insert and create a new button. Name the button.









You will have 4 requirements: Up, over, down and hit.









Up is the normal stage of the button, over is what the button looks like when you go over it, down is what the button looks like when you click it, and the hit area is where the button is "live"









Put keyframes in each of these stages and change the button.









Press F9 to open the action script. Copy and past this action script:









var numPressed:Number = 0;



btnCount.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, countUp);



function countUp(evt:MouseEvent):void { numPressed++; trace("Button was pressed " + String(numPressed) + " times.");}









Show the teacher what you have done for credit. Put on your blog "Success!!" when complete.

A Flash Symbol

New Blog. Call this blog Movie Symbol.

 

Ok. You should have the motion tween down now, if you don't , come to tutoring!

Flash has three symbols: Graphic, movie, and button.

Make a movie symbol of a ball bouncing. Place this movie onto the stage 10 times. Save it as a .gif and export it to your blog.

 

Create a new movie symbol of a ball which rises from the floor then explodes about halfway up the stage. Make a cup, then put 5 or more instances of this movie on this cup to simulate "fizz." Export it as a .gif and put it on your blog. If you can't save it to the blog, save it to your skydrive or flash drive.

Flash Bouncing Ball

1. Create a bubble in illustrator which has two circles, one within the other, the one on top a little lighter than the one back. Use the feather at 66 on the one on top. Then make two gradient bandannas and place them on there.
2. Export the bubble as a .PNG. Name it so you can find it!
3. Then open it up in flash action script 3.
4. Put the bubble in the library and eventually it will be changed into a symbol.
5. Make it bounce with a tween.
6. Squish it at the bottom.
7. Then bounce it back.

Save it as an .avi file and upload it to your blog. If you can't, save it to your flash drive or sky drive.
